This book systematically discusses the link between bilingual
language production and its manifestation in historical documents,
drawing together two branches of linguistics which have much in
common but are traditionally dealt with separately. By combining
the study of historical mixed texts with the principles of modern
code-switching and bilingualism research, the author argues that
the cognitive processes underpinning the human capacity to produce
mixed utterances have remained unchanged throughout history, even
as the languages themselves are constantly changing. This book will
be of interest to scholars of historical linguistics, syntactic
theory (particularly generative grammar), language variation and
change.
